The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 106

"Don't worry about it." Charles stretched out his hand and touched Autumn's head. He continued, "You have me. I won't let anyone hurt you."

"Didn't you say that you wanted to buy Cindy some gifts? Let's go to another place." Charles took Autumn to another nearby shopping mall. While Autumn was choosing the gifts, Charles went to another corner and dialed David's number. He asked David to block all of tomorrow's box news on Rachel and him.

'Many passers-by must have taken pictures of Autumn. Nowadays netizens could easily search a person's information online. It's okay for me to expose our real relationship. But I don't want to put Autumn in any awkward situation, ' he mused.

"One more thing." After a short pause, Charles continued, "Contact all of our cooperative partners. Tell them to change their spokesperson immediately. If I discover that Rachel endorses any of their products, we will stop our cooperation with them instantly."

David frowned slightly and asked in an irresolute tone, "Mr. Lu, are you sure about this?"

"Do as I say." 'I have been giving her chances because I didn't want to destroy the status and reputation she has earned. Now that she doesn't care about these things, she can't blame me for what I am going to do.' He added, "Besides, tell those directors that Rachel isn't a qualified female lead. And ask them to refuse to work with her if she uses my or Shining Company's references."

David answered, "Okay, I will." 'This time Rachel must have really pissed off Charles. Otherwise, he wouldn't have made those decisions, ' thought David to himself.

He hung up the phone with an angry look. But when he turned around and watched Autumn picking out clothes, his anger faded away. 'She is the woman that I swore to protect for the rest of my life. I will never allow anyone to hurt her, ' Charles told himself.

Autumn selected a pink blue dress, and she asked as she held the dress, "Charles, do you think will Cindy like this dress?" Charles nodded and replied, "If you think this one is fine, then take this."

Autumn took another pair of blue jeans with a belt which was of a different style to that dress. This one looked cool. She raised her eyebrow and said, "But I also like this one."

"Then, take them both." Charles took a doll and then paid the bill. He walked up to Autumn and said smilingly, "Let's go. We don't have much time now."

When Charles and Autumn arrived at the entrance of Hong Fu Restaurant, they met Andy, Abby and Cindy, who was in Andy's arms. When Cindy caught sight of Autumn, she asked Andy to let her down. She hugged Autumn as she joyfully asked, "Pretty big sister, did you miss me?"

Autumn answered with a bright smile on her face, "Of course I did. I haven't seen you for half a day."

"I missed you too." She then kissed on Autumn's cheek.

Andy and Abby came forward to greet them with a smile, "Well, let's go inside."

They walked into the compartment which they had booked in advance. Andy said smilingly as he gave the menu to Autumn, "Please, order whatever you like. Sam called earlier to say that he would arrive later for he has something to deal with and he asked us to eat first."

Autumn nodded, "Okay." She was at ease in Sam's absence.

Autumn and Cindy sat close together to order the food. Charles placed Autumn's tableware nicely and poured tea for her. Noticing this, Andy said, "Mr. Lu, you treat your wife so well." 'Even though this is small act, it shows Charles' affection towards Autumn.' He continued, "Your wife is a fair and amiable girl. I was wondering who would be lucky enough to win her heart. To my surprise, she is already married."

Abby had accepted the truth that Autumn had gotten married. As she reflected on how affectionately Autumn had treated Cindy, she said with a smile on her face, "Mr. Lu, you should try harder on having a baby. Your wife likes kids very much. If you two have a baby, it would look cute."

'Autumn is beautiful, while Mr. Lu is handsome. Their kid will surely be pretty, ' Abby pondered.
